Synapse
Synapse.
The gap between the axon of one nerve cell and the dendrite of another nerve cell is called the synapse. Synapses are the space into which neurotransmitters are released from the axon to act on the dendrite, and thus transmit a signal between neurons.
If the axon and the dendrite are from the same cell (i.e., the neuron is making a synapse with itself), this gap is called an autapse ("auto-synapse").

How does an impulse cross a synaptic gap between two nerve cells?
Neurotransmitters send the impulse across the synapse
What is the junction between an axon and another cell called?
electrical synapses
What aid in the coordination of the activities of adjacent animal cells?
There are gap junctions which help the cells communicate with one another.
What is the Cell cycle Gap O phase?
The Gap O in the cell cycle is the dormant stage. Some cells in this Gap O stage can come out of dormancy if they are damaged. Some cannot be repaired or replaced like the nerve cells.
What is the channel between animal cells?
Gap junction aka nexus
What is the gap between nerve cells?

What is the thick nerve tissue that connects the brain to most of the nerves?
a gap between cells
How does an impulse cross a synaptic gap between two nerve cells?
Neurotransmitters send the impulse across the synapse
What does Axons transmit?
Axons are nerve fibers which extend as long, slender projections from nerve cells. They transmit electrical and electrochemical signals across the gap at a junction(synapse) between them and the other cell.

You could locate sites involved in transmitting a nerve impulse by finding the synapses. They are defined as a junction between two nerve cells, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter.

What are gap junctions in cells?
They are connections between animal cells which connects the cytoplasm between the cells; in neurons, they are electrical synapses.
